DECORATION DAY, 1942 Let’s give thought to the biggest responsibility any generation of Americans ever hadl We’ve got a war to win — the hard way! We have to be strong enough to gain and hold the offensive until Victory: we have to fight slimy propaganda without and within; there are lots of things we used to have that we’ve got to do without. It's a fine spirit for us to keep smilin’ — but folks, behind our smiles we’ve got to be fighting mad!

MAJOR RHODES TOOK PART IN OKLAHOMA LAND RUSH Major John D. Rhodes, a member of the Earl Fisk Camp of United Spanish War Veterans who was not only in the Spanish war of *98 as a member of the Rough Riders, but who also participated as a commissioned officer in the Filipino Rebellion, and also in the first World War, this morning recounted some of his .xperiences as a participant in the wild rush of homesteaders into the 50-mile square central part of the present state of Oklahoma. It was on April 22, 1889, that the proclamation of President Benjamin Harrison opened that area to homesteading. “That morning,” said the major, "we men that wanted land in the tract were lined up almost solid ail the way ’round the 50-mile square piece of territory and when the signal gun was fired we all dashed into the tract horseback, in a mad rush to get to the piece we wanted before anyone else got there. “Surveyors, years before, had set up stones at each corner of every quarter-section, and had marked it, so we could identify by surveyor’s description the piece of land we wanted, but we had to beat the other fellow to it, and stay there, to keep some one else entering it."
